Certainly the guy is insane. But, surely carrying a knife around implies pre-meditation? Why carry a large knife around if you are not thinking at all of using it? Or, pick up the knife and think there might be a chance of using it.
I'd say he knew beforehand something was going to happen = pre-meditated murder.
He should be pre-released from life. Give the tax money saved to innocent starving children.

Thus he was found innocent

No, he was found not guilty. Completely different.

By the way, life imprisonment is far cheaper than capital punishment.

Not if it's done right. Bullets or rope would cost less than $10.

I lived in Winnipeg when this happened. This guy should be locked up in a solitary jail cell for the rest of his life.

The fact that he already had a knife has a hint of pre-meditation.

In no way does pre-meditation disqualify someone from being insane.
